The Shaver Shop does clipper repairs for Oster, Wahl etc . https://www.shavershop.com/repair-services

I have used MFM since they first came on the market. Never had any problems with it. The dogs like it and the poos are nice and firm.

I ordered a 10 blade for my Wahl clippers from Melbourne. Brand new blade and doesn't cut. It's definitely the blade as I can still use the clippers with my old blades.

Roll up your carpets before they get peed on.

Yesterday when I was walking in the park I saw a man with a black & white pup. It looked like a Bearded Collie or OES. I asked him what breed it was and he said it was a Border Collie X Cavoodle. I think he said it was called a Boodle and it was 6 mths old. That's a new one for me. I've never seen that combination before.

I have an older dog 5 years old. We recently got a pup at 8 weeks old. For the first 2 -3 weeks the older dog would avoid the puppy by getting on the bed. He didn't want anything to do with the pup. He would look at us as if to say what have you done. Then they had their first game together and our older dog realised this could be fun. They haven't stopped playing since. They are now great mates.

I used Blackhawk and Ivory Coat on & off. When the company changed ownership i stopped. It wasn't as good and it wasn't an Australian Company anymore.

I've done that and cancelled the appts for the vaccines.

Do they use the L2 vaccine here or the L4?

Has anyone had or heard of adverse side effects from the Leptospirosis vaccine. Apparently there is an L2 vaccine, an L3 and L4 vaccine. I have read that the L4 vaccine has caused side effects in the UK. Lepto 2 covers 2 Serovars & Lepto 4 covers 4 Serovars. Lepto 3 is not available in the UK apparently. Apparently the vaccine does not prevent dogs from getting Leptospirosis and is meant to lessen the severity of the disease. Does anyone have any experience or knowledge of this vaccine. I will ask my vet at my next consult but would appreciate any further info Dolers may have in relation to the vaccine and the disease.

Pleased to hear this update. We all have bad days as we get older. Dogs as well as humans.

Agree with the dog walker option. Or Doggy Day Care if there aren't too many excitable pups there. Is she taking any natural supplements or medication for her hip and back issues. There are a lot of people working from home still. Maybe one of your neighbours who needs the exercise or who loves dogs. Much easier to walk an older quieter dog than a younger energetic one.

What about the people who persist in calling all dogs puppies. Even when the dogs are 50-60kgs they tell their children the dogs are "puppies".

Applaws dry food is not too expensive and can be bought in some supermarkets. I have used Applaws on occasion and the dogs seem to like it.

Pls ignore last sentence in above post. Sorry about that.

The dog had only become part of the family a week before this incident. Police are trying to locate the previous owner. First episode aired last night.

It used to be that you paid more for rare breeds. Now you pay more for "trendy" dogs that are everywhere such as oodles groodles etc & French Bulldogs- blue or not.
